Fours stars for a nice little theme bar and the cleanliness of the machines, 3 stars for the selection of machines. Staff was friendly and they have a great beer selection but was a little disappointed in the choice of machines. The ones they have are in super condition but I thought there would be more vintage electro-mechanical games. There was one vintage table of 1960s era, the rest were all digital from the 80s on. Would have really liked to see a couple of classics from the 70s, of which there were none. Also, most were Stern or Data East with but a couple of Bally and a Williams or two, and I did not see even one Gottliebs, my personal favorite. Of the digital ones I would at least like to have seen maybe Ballys Eight Ball Deluxe or Gottliebs Haunted House. Anyway, would like to see a few more old school classics, but all in all not a bad place.

I truly love this place but the food situation is ridiculous. I LOVE hotdogs and accidently ordered the vegan bratwurst and it was amazing! Listen, I know 8 bucks isnt that much money, but for a hot dog? No way! I will be back to play the tables but you wont be getting a dollar of my money for food until you lower the prices. Id need two of those things to feel full and Im not paying 16 dollars for two hot dogs. See where I am going? Even if it were 6 dollars regular and 4 or 5 on happy hour that would be enough to make me a truly satisfied customer. Its not that big of a difference at all, but we are talking about hot dogs people. Thanks and hopefully this gets heard.

Fun way to spend an evening. The pins are well maintained and theres something for everyone from the classic to the new. Batman was my personal favorite. Hot dogs are delicious with unique toppings. While there are a variety of cool sound cocktails (as well as wine selections) available, I was delighted with the craft beer offerings from local breweries. Be sure to have a "Double Danger" which is an IPA brewed just for Tilt by the folks at Sisyphus.

Awesome pinball, awesome atmosphere! TILT is another pinball paradise for Minneapolis folks. 22 machines ranging from old electromechanical to brand new, all in excellent condition and all priced at $0.25/game. Reasonable drink prices, solid happy hour deals, and gourmet hotdogs with a variety of toppings. Ill be back for sure!

I live right next to the TILT Pinball bar and I cant say Im overly impressed. The hotdogs were ok, but unnecessarily "gourmet." If youre looking to play some cheap pinball then this is the place to go, otherwise I would say spend your dinner money elsewhere.

Tilt is the standard of what pinball bars should aspire to. The machines are meticulously maintained and there is an amazing mix of old and brand new machines. The food is amazingad well. Tilt is a must visit for serous and casual pinball lovers alike.

Tilt is a great place to go for a few hours of pinball, food, a Nordeast and a jukebox for under $20. Its a bargain. The machines are mostly the newer digital ones and kept in good working condition. I have been there twice and will return again.

Waitress was super pleasant, but the crowd there was not. They definitely have regulars and if you arent one of them, you get side-eyed almost the entire time youre visiting. On the bright side, they offer vegan hot-dogs, which were DELICIOUS!

The mix of old school and new school pinball machines here is great; they have tables from 1960 to 2017, including some that are pretty uncommon. Games/beer are reasonably priced, and it hasnt been too crowded whenever Im there.

Amazing pinball bar with a fantastic selection of impeccably-maintained (and often feature-upgraded) machines, great bar, and great staff... and all games are only $.25! Lots of new games as well as some favorite classics.

I have been here twice and will absolutely be back. Bring quarters! Or there is a change machine. Great game selection. It seems like there is a longer wait for games on the weekend then weeknights, as would be expected.

Love the pinball games. Check out the vintage games in the back corner. Ask the friendly staff how to start if youre unsure. Good drinks. $8 seems high for a hot dog. Early afternoon is a good time to beat the crowd.

I hit up pinball places across the country, and this is one of the best spots Ive ever found. Almost all of the machines play flawlessly and are obviously maintained very well. Plus good beers on draft!

Best pinball in the Twin Cities! These machines are meticulously cared for. All these tables play great and they have some of the best ones around. Great service and the dogs are proper!!!

Stacy Welle

Fun place and the pinball machines are only $.25 each. They serve hot dogs and have a bar. It isnt a place to spend a long time hanging out at unless you really like pinball.

Jessica Weiman

Awesome pinball machines and a fun retro vibe. Tasty hotdogs with unique toppings and some fun signature cocktails and local brews make for an all-around enjoyable experience!

Jive Midnight

Great place for a pinball and a brew. Great atmosphere totally decked out for pinball. From the bar to the bathrooms its a pinball wonderland. Good selection of machines.

Super fun, however it will be busy for the next couple of weeks as word gets around. Great mixture of new and old school pinball machine. I will be back very soon!

Cyndi Anderson-Hinds

Good service, love that there is a happy hour, awesome location and then there is all the pinball machines... glorious! Next time will have a hot dog!

Jonathan Purdy

A bit loud but thats expected. The games are good decent, though one of them took a few coins and didnt let us play.. I didnt try the food or drinks.

Darren Wacker

Great selection of pinball games. Everything is only $.25! Not too much of an atmosphere, if pinball is not your thing though.

Wingus Dingus

Tables in fair to perfect condition. Dogs, liquor, beers all priced right. Hands down best place to play.

cassondra henning

Not always the best beer selection, but everything else is great! Almost all the games are a quarter!

Robert Mills

Chad Haugejorden
